(Post Voting Period)

I thank in advance to whoever accepts this challenge.

Burden of Proof:

I must prove the full resolution, which is, "In a fight, Voldemort and Dumbledore would beat Megatron and Optimus Prime."

My opponent must negate the full resolution and prove, "In a fight, Megatron and Optimus Prime would beat Voldemort and Dumbledore."

Rules:

1. There will be no abuse of semantics, loopholes, wordplay, etc.

2. I ask that the person who accepts this knows a little about Harry Potter and Transformers, as these are where the characters are coming from. This is not a required rule, but it is something that would be useful to have in this debate.

3. We will be assuming that all characters will be using the full extent of their powers.

4. Voldemort will be armed with his normal wa

This debate is on the issue of the legalisation of Marijuana. The legalisation shall be to legalise the drug, also known by its technical name Cannabis Sativa and street names "weed, marijuana, green, hash, skunk".

The first round is for acceptance. The fourth round is not for presenting new arguments. The fifth round is in case anyone forfeits, we can simply use on of the "spares" in order to finish the debate.

One Piece Universe vs. Naruto Universe

2012-07-25T05:58:27-08:00

(Post Voting Period)

Yup, it's another classic pirates vs. ninjas debate, except these aren't any ordinary pirates or ninjas! The full resolution is, "In a war, the One Piece universe would beat the Naruto universe."

Burden of Proof -

I, Pro, must prove that in a war between the One Piece universe and Naruto universe, the former would win.

My opponent, Con, must prove that in a war between the One Piece universe and Naruto universe, the latter would win.

Rules for Battle -

1. All current characters in the series will be restored to full health and power.

2. All deceased characters will be brought back to life with full health and power.

3. Any characters that died before the series began (i.e. the Sage of the Six Paths, Gol D. Roger, etc.) will be excluded from rule number two. This includes the ten tails.

4. The only exception to rule number three is

Best Super Power

2012-01-20T21:07:47-08:00

(Post Voting Period)

I thank kyro90 in advance for accepting this debate. We have both reached an agreement on what super powers we will be arguing for and what the rules will be.

BOP-

I, Pro, must prove that the ability to find anything you wish is a better power than invisibility.

My opponent, Con, must prove that the power to turn in invisible is better than the ability to find anything you wish.

Rules-

1. Although this should not be necessary, there will be no abuse of semantics, loopholes, and/or word play.

2. We can not exploit our powers to make them God-like nor can we use them to attain other powers.

For the purposes of this debate, "better" will be defined as "more useful".

I look forward to a fun debate.

Bowser vs the Sonic the Hedgehog. Hopefully...

2012-03-20T17:16:57-08:00

(Post Voting Period) The first round is for acceptance only. In a one-on-one battle, Bowser from "Mario" could defeat Sonic the Hedgehog from "Sonic the Hedgehog." The rules are as follows: 1. There will be no abuse of linguistics, semantics, or such in the debate. 2. Items are not allowed in this debate. 3. The setting of the fight is a square field that is ten miles on each side. This square can not be exited. 4. No allies are allowed in this battle. An ally in this debate is anything that can act on its own to aid the battler. Therefore, a robot that aids Sonic or a Koopa aiding Bowser is an ally. 5. Invincibility stars are not allowed in this debate (emphasis). BOP: Pro, (I), must prove that Bowser could defeat Sonic the Hedgehog. BOP: Con, (PeacefulChaos), must prove that Sonic the Hedgehog could defeat Bowser. Neither side can argue for a tie. I guess that's it. I hope my opponent enjoys this debate as I do. Please disregard the other debate challenge, as I

(Voting Period)

This is my first debate on Debate.org, so I am pretty excited about it! The first round will be for acceptance only.

Resolution:

The resolution states, “Do or do not, there is no try”, a famous quote from Yoda. I, con, will be arguing against this statement. I will be stating that there is such thing as trying.

My opponent, pro, will agree with the resolution. He/she will try to prove that there isn't such thing as trying.

Therefore, I stand firm in the following statement: There is such thing as trying.

Dumbledore with Harry's wand(before it was broken) vs Voldermort with the unbeatable wand!

2011-12-16T15:14:40-08:00

(Post Voting Period) I believe Dumbledore would win against Voldermort using just Harry's wand since Dumbledore was able to defeat his old childhood friend that carried the unbeatable wand. I'll give more detail if someone accepts this challenge =)

I look forward to a fun, challenging debate!
